AYSE ATES

Ates's practice is shaped around the axis of human, non-human, nature and memory. Inspired by chance encounters, oral histories and her own experiences, Ates produces her works with the belief that nothing that has happened on earth and in the universe at any time will ever disappear, with an effort to resist decay, oblivion and extinction. The artist, who pursues stories, aims to understand and reflect the present and the existing by using different mediums.
